From La Femme Nikita and The Professional to The Fifth Element, writer/director Luc Besson has created some of the toughest, most memorable female action heroes in cinematic history. Now, Besson directs Scarlett Johansson in Lucy, an action-thriller that tracks a woman accidentally caught in a dark deal who turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic. Lucy also stars Academy Award® winner Morgan Freeman and is produced by Virginie Besson-Silla for EuropaCorp. Universal Pictures will distribute the movie worldwide, except for France, Benelux and China.

I just get the feeling this might end up like those atrocious Resident Evil (and Ultra Violet) films. It already looks like it's probably going that way. Also that scene when she spread her legs in the prison for that guard grossed me out. Yeeesh.

@Humperdink - Yeah. I don't know. I haven't really been paying attention to it. The trailers looked typical. It might be good. I don't know. I'm not paying to see it though. I'll give it a shot when it hits cable.

I'm guessing this wasn't the best scene to show the movie off to people. What she was doing with the Matixy data-streamy things isn't explained to us here, so we're like, what, is it the Matrix? But I know it's not that, so, maybe I'm slow for not already understanding what was going on there, so I'll hold off til I see it I suppose. It has me solely by its premise. And, yeah, his acting, if he can at all, isn't on good display here. But, whatever, he's not the main character anyway.

It took me watching this a couple times to realize what the guy is saying with his super-thick accent: "I'd rather be late than dead." Her answer is awesome. I'd be asking her what happens to our consciousness and individuality when we die and how she knows this, and whether it's provable by mortal means.
